Summer 2015 Applications

Any advice on RBS first round for grad markets?

How bad is it to renege on a contract?

IS there anyone else with an JP Morgan PB offer ?

Guys do you reckon the chances of securing an internship are higher or lower after the Christmas period.

My issue is that I have been offered an internship but would much rather wait and see if my other applications get back to me, Rothschild, AAM and Schroders ect. This is my first offer so I'm not actually sure whether most companies give offers before or after Christmas.

Congrats dude,when did you apply?

Is it for sales or trading

Not really sure what's going on with AM but I'd say it's probably lower
At worst, just hold off on sighing and chase up the other places

Neither, I should have specified it's Capital Markets sorry

Got AC invitation from MS for Sales and Trading Summer. Anyone able to shed some light? I really want to know what the presentation is like. Any advice will be helpful

Thanks in advance!

Received emails from HSBC for Grad Trading for at least 2 months now saying "we're still reviewing". I assume I'll get a rejection by the end of it like last year because it seems too late now not to have even got a phone interview. Has anyone heard from HSBC?

Also, with regards to attractiveness, obviously being good looking (male or female) helps. However, sure, being an attractive girl DEFINITELY helps. When I was at a previous summer internship towards when offers were being handed out I talked to some line managers informally and they were making jokes about some of the attractive girls and how they'd obviously be getting offers. And the majority did.

I won't say it was solely because of that, but when you do hear some line managers talk about some of the girls having "two great assets"... obviously it is a very male-dominated field. I think in Sales at least, no doubt. It's not at all a coincidence that most of the hot girls at a bank will be in Sales.
